The Birds that endure reach the mountain to learn a profound lesson: that Simorgh the king is, in fact, each of them and all of them..
Drawn from all species, the flock travels through the seven valleys: quest, love, understanding, detachment, unity, amazement, and death.
Sis\'s deeply felt version of the classic twelfth-century Persian epic poem tells the story of a flock of Birds in search of the true king, Simorgh, who lives on the mountain of Kaf.
